Hi there,
This has worked for me but can anyone tell me if you needed to reschedule a meeting how you would do this?
Thanks Louise

In Outlook 2007, when I try to change the date to the second occurrence of my random dates, I get a message that says “Cannot reschedule an occurrence of the recurring appointment if it skips over a later occurrence of the same appointment”. First of all… WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?!?!?
Second, how can I correct it?????

Far to complicated. Microsoft should just allow date pickers for the dates you want similar to other calendar software. Period

It does work in 2007 – just done it. I made the mistake of NOT sending the request to myself first and then forwarding to everyone else.

This doesn’t appear to work in 2007 – any further tips to make it work in 2007?

This works..kind of. It will put the invitation on all of the correct dates with only 1 notification. But, in the recurrence line, it still says whatever the original recurrence was. I.E. if I set it for the 29th day of each month, then change Sept, Oct, and Nov to the 19, 21, and 15th, it will put the invites in the right spots with one notification, but the recurrence line will still say “day 29 of each month* on every date.

This worked for me with Outlook XP, but with Outlook 2007 a request is sent for each meeting.

Used this to create a monthly appointment with varying dates over a 12 month period and it worked a treat. They only got the 1 request. Cheers
